Prioritize Safety

Is your ladder for branch cutting working properly? Do you have protective glasses and gloves for vent cleaning? These are just some questions to ponder on about safety. Never attempt to DIY anything without considering the safety measures.

Accidents can happen because of the actual job and improper use of equipment.

Get the Proper Permits

Certain jobs need permits to do. Make sure you have these. Take note that there are specific home improvement tasks that also need a proper license to do. So if you are not a certified electrician or plumber, it is best to look for one instead.

Home Improvement Jobs You Should Never Do Yourself

One of the leading causes of severe injuries in Canada in 2010 was falls, according to one report, with adults comprised 35 percent of the numbers. Asbestos exposure was even revealed as a leading health hazard in the workplace, according to one report in 2014.

These do not even include other injuries and fatal accidents that could happen when doing DIY. So to be safe, here are home improvement jobs that you should get professional services for:

Electrical

Mold Removal

Tree Removal

Plumbing

Flooring

Roof Replacement or Installation

Keep in mind that this is not to discourage you from fixing or improving your own. Just make sure to practice discretion and good judgment when you need something done right for your house. Your well-being is far more important than anything.
